TeaCuppa and Yunnan Sourcing also sell it. I get mine locally at a Chinatown shop; their online store is called Asia Chi. http://asiachi.com/spkudichatea.html is the link to their kuding, but in the store they offer several grades, and I buy the highest grade. Also, I don't know if they ship to Ukraine.

Anyone know by what mechanism this tea works? I'm very skeptic to health effects of any tea considering it's 99.something percent water. :p

Also any peer-reviewed reports supporting the positive health effects of this tea would be appreciated. Wikipedia doesn't seem to cite any but the usual (likely biased IMO) folk medicine universities. :p
